What it does
A macOS menu-bar app for people who live on video calls. Record a few seconds of yourself and CamLoop loops it through a real virtual camera in Zoom, Meet, Teams, Slack, FaceTime or OBS. One hotkey swaps your live feed for the loop, so you can rest your eyes or step away for a minute without becoming the dark tile people ask about. It only swaps the camera, your audio passes through, and clips stay on your Mac, never uploaded. It's a real system camera, not a screen-share hack.
CamLoop records a few seconds of you and loops it through a virtual camera in Zoom, Meet, Slack, and Teams, so you can step away from a call while you look present. Your real audio still passes through.
Record a few seconds of yourself and loop it through a virtual camera. Grab a coffee, rest your eyes, answer the door, and still look present. Your audio never stops. Free forever for the basics. Pro $4.99/mo for hotkeys, unlimited clips & lifelike loops. A few seconds of you looking present, recorded earlier. Match your pose, then one hotkey starts the loop. The loop holds your camera while you grab a coffee. Your audio still passes through. Line up once more and drop back into your real camera. No one saw the seam. CamLoop lives in your menu bar. Record a few seconds of yourself, pick CamLoop as your camera once, and a single hotkey swaps your live feed for the loop and back. A glance at…from camloop.app

Homebrew 6.0.0▲1,481Today, I’m proud to announce Homebrew 6.0.0. The most significant changes since 5.1.0 are a new tap trust security mechanism, the new faster, smaller, default internal Homebrew JSON API, sandboxing on Linux, better defaults informed by our user survey, many brew bundle improvements, improved performance and initial support for macOS 27 (Golden Gate). Happy to discuss any questions here!

Hi HN! I was super frustrated at apps like tiktok and wechat preventing me from saving or downloading the animated gifs, so I made a little tool to turn a screen recording into a slack-sized emoji. Hope you get some value from this!
